I was a spectator at my daughter's championship game in a competitive league for 13 -14 y/o . They have played for about 2 months and had come down to this game to decide the champion. The opposing coach is barking at the ref's from the tipoff and never stopped. Finally in the 3rd quarter one of the officials says " coach I've had enough" and gives him a T. ( I couldn't hear what was said ) . Late in the 4th quarter I hear the same official say " Coach , that's enough" and he puts up the stop sign and tells him if he gets another T he will have to leave. The coach say" You have got to be an idiot not to call that foul ". Then says to the official " You are a stupid idiot ". The official T's him up and tells the coach he has to leave the building. The coach then says " what are you going to do if I don't ". Unfortunately , game management was in the other gym so it took some time for them to get there. Finally the other official talks to the coach and gets him out of there . My question is: Could have the official called the game due to a forfeit b/c of the coach not leaving or what are the other options . I have not had to deal with this yet and was wondering what the proper procedure was. BTY we ended up winning the game by 14 points.

Thanks

Put (I belive it is 5) minutes on the clock, and if he is still not out of there TWEET game is over and his team lost. However, if there is an asst coach or a parent in this matter for this type of league who can come coach they usually do it like that instead of this itiot causing the kids the game.
